Report: Oscar Garcia to be named Watford head coach

By , Reporter
Former Brighton & Hove Albion boss Oscar Garcia will be unveiled as the new head coach of Watford, according to a report.

Watford are reportedly planning to appoint Oscar Garcia as their new head coach.

The former Brighton & Hove Albion boss has been heavily linked with the position at Vicarage Road following the resignation of Beppe Sannino on Sunday.

Garcia is currently out of work after leaving his position as manager of Maccabi Tel Aviv last week because of concerns over the current security situation in Israel.

The 41-year-old has also reportedly held talks with Leeds United over their vacant manager's job.

However, Garcia has opted to join Watford and he will be unveiled as their new head coach today, according to the Watford Observer.

The Spaniard guided Brighton to last season's Championship playoffs, where they lost to Derby County in the semi-finals.
